Default Show me your Caps!!!

I just got a new in box Wild Hare 85" Cap 232 and I will be picking it up this weekend. Is anyone still flying these? Lets see some pics of your past or present caps(don't have to be Wild Hare). I have always been a fan of these planes and I am finally able to get my hands on one. I will be sure to post a bit of a "retro build thread" if you will since they have been out of production for a while.

This was my old Cap I had. Loved the Cap. Just upgraded to the 330 and now got a 260 we are finishing right now.

It was the TME Smoke pump. I did not regulate/mix it with throttle like most guys do. I like the constant level of smoke, just had it on a 2 position switch, on and off. Had the line clamp adjusted to the level of flow rate that seemed to work best for me.

I personally don't think there is a monoplane that looks better tumbling with smoke than a cap. Keep up with the pictures they are great so far!
